Jesus this is stupid. The Big East schools shut down the Big East conference because they didn't sign that contract.


Wrong. They didn't sign the contract so ESPN told the important schools to join a conference they already had a contract with.

And then they made a 30 for 30 about this and blamed the Big East for their own demise.

That's freaking brilliant. Dishonest, but brilliant.

For the Big East demise you can blame Mike Tranghese. Dude black balled Penn State. If they allowed Penn State they would have also taken Florida State as well (who was indy at the time).

Penn State
Florida State
Virginia Tech
Miami
West Virginia
Pitt

That's a damn good top 6

He might but she doesn't have any money and the damage from the audio is already done.

This is the part where your crazy ESPN obsession leads you astray.

Haha I love the irony of this quote. He doesn't want his girlfriend bring black people to his games but he's ok if she sleeps with them.

Man I don't want my gf sleeping with anyone else but me.

What damage? He is 80+ years old and a narcissistic a-hole who will die soon. He doesn't care about damage and I guarantee this will be forgotten within a week just like the Riley Cooper incident was...

There is no point I was mentioning out that she broke a law by illegally recording and he broke no laws.

Disclaimer: I think Sterling is a piece of shite

I think Social Media (and the ensuing faux outrage that can be expressed on it), is much more powerful than ESPN. And the current power of social media has only been around for the past 3 years or so, maybe even less. Sterling could never have gotten away with all the shite he did in today's media climate. The NBA would have Marge Schott'd him really fast.

Btw, I think the outrage against Sterling isn't overblown. Especially when you look at what he has done for 25-30 years. He is by all means an awful human being. If a Communist propagandist could create a fictional character to incite the masses, he would have created essentially Donald Sterling.



Exactly. People trying to compare the demise of the Big East to something that can garner societal outrage. It's laughable.

Facebook and Twitter has been involved in political coups. ESPN on the other hand ended the Big East. Ok LOL

See my post above. One man killed the Big East when he black balled Penn State, although many others didn't help the cause

She's not the important one. She can go to jail for life but that's not the story here.

I understand that.

the story is an 80 year old jewish man is racist, shocker

Now they have Jesse Jackson on ESPN, who is equally a racist like Sterling.

From the NBA's persepctive an owner saying he doesn't want black people at games, that's pretty bad
